Golden Knights Acquire Wotherspoon | Vegas Golden Knights News

Jun 30, 2026 · 2 min

The Vegas Golden Knights just pulled off a savvy trade, acquiring defenseman Parker Wotherspoon from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for Kaedan Korczak. Wotherspoon, 28, had a breakout season with Pittsburgh, posting 30 points in 80 games and leading the team in blocked shots while earning a plus-17 rating. With international experience from Canada’s World Championship and over 180 NHL games under his belt, he’s a proven commodity. Korczak, the 25-year-old defenseman Vegas drafted in 2019, will head to Pittsburgh after a solid career with Vegas, including a career-high in games last season. This move signals Vegas’ commitment to upgrading their blue line as they prepare for the next campaign.
